The Jaldraocht Pyramid, also known as Azzanadra's Pyramid or simply The Pyramid (it was the first pyramid released) is located south of the Bandit Camp in the Kharidian Desert. It is a key location in the quest Desert Treasure, and upon completion of said quest, can be used by players to switch their spell book to Ancient Magicks or back. During the quest, players must use the main entrance of the pyramid to get in, which requires them to run past attacking creatures (see below) while dodging traps. The pyramid has three levels, each of which is larger in width than the last. Some players consider getting through to be of some difficulty, as the traps will send the player back to the entrance. After the completion of the quest, players may use the south entrance to return to the center of the pyramid without frustration.

The fastest way to reach the Pyramid is to use the Jaldraocht teleport of the pharaoh's sceptre. The second fastest way is by using a Camulet and teleport just to the north west (where the Quest icon is on the map below). Both are much faster than using a ring of duelling (or operating the enchanted broomstick) followed by the Magic carpet teleport system.

After completion of the Desert Treasure Quest, players can buy the Ancient staff from Eblis; if they happen to lose it, they can buy one from another player or kill mummies inside Jaldraocht for another.

Inside, close to Azzanadra's chamber, a few spiderwebs can be found. Investigating them gives the message "You need the guard's permission to do that." This could hint to either a Desert Treasure sequel, or that Jagex used the same spiderwebs from the Murder Mystery quest.
